## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-28 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Searched the current landscape - here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd try them.
> 
> ## If you're already on Shopify (most retail shops are)
> 
> **1. Shopify Marketplace Connect** - Start here. It's Shopify's own app (the former Codisto, which they bought), lives in your admin with no second dashboard, and covers Amazon, eBay, Walmart and Target Plus. Free to install, first 50 synced orders/month free, then 1% per synced order capped at $99/mo. The gap: no Etsy, TikTok Shop or Temu.
> 
> **2. Sellbrite** - The one I'd name if you need Etsy, or if you don't want your marketplace sync tied to Shopify. Standalone dashboard covering Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Walmart plus Shopify/BigCommerce/WooCommerce, free tier for low volume, paid from roughly $29-49/mo. Easiest learning curve of the standalone tools.
> 
> **3. Veeqo** - Free for Amazon sellers (Amazon owns it) and genuinely good at the shipping/picking side, not just listings. It also syncs to Lightspeed Retail POS, which matters if you have a physical shop floor.
> 
> ## If you have real inventory complexity (multiple locations, wholesale, a stockroom)
> 
> **4. Cin7 (Core or Omni)** - The one I'd pick for a shop that's also doing whol
